Hyatt Place Panama City Beach

10/10 Excellent

"Great experience will highly recommend!"

Seahaven Beach Hotel

10/10 Excellent

"Building was older but room was clean and well kept. The bathroom roof was only 7 feet which taller people might have an Issue if staying on the first floor. Staff was really great, and took care of everything. Room is right on the beach and is steps from the beach which was really nice and convenient. Also within walking distance of good bars and restaurants. Will stay there again."

The Lodge 30A

10/10 Excellent

"We had an excellent stay at Lodge 30 A . The staff were all top notch , they clean so very well excellent on neat clean areas everywhere in hotel ! The little kitchenette is nice for a week stay or longer you have a full fridge , dishwasher , dishes , microwave very nice if you had kids with you ! Can wash bathing suits in kitchen sink or anything else you wanted to . They also have a laundry room if you choose to pack less it’s convenient! Pool area is very nice , close to beach if you walk down May street or Williams you will find a public parking lot walk down steps to public beach access 12 ! 13 is next closest with shower to rinse off sand . Ice cream and coffee shop and several restaurants right next door ! Great place only downfall bed was needing replacement after long tourist season and pillows to big but you can ask for smaller ones ! We highly recommend this place and would go back !"
